Things to look for at Turfway.

First of all a couple of cool little changes at little Turfway

1) The grandstand has been wire as a hot spot. So internet service will be provided.

2) Turfway has taken over the food and beverage. Which has to be a plus.

3) This is cool. On Sept 30th (KY Cup Day) you can spend $100 to get into the VIP Paddock. This $100 gets you food and an open bar. Not too bad.

4) There are going to be 3 pick 4's. Starting in races 1 - 5 - 7. Two daily doubles. Starting in race 1 and 9. Rolling pick 3's starting in the 1st race. And 10 cent supers.

Now the times should be better this meet since they took two inches off of the track and put down a waxier version of PolyTrack. The kickback has been reduced tons. So we should see faster times, less kickback and better racing.

The Lep will be back at Turfway. So dont expect to get good odds on his horses.

Pletcher, Lukas, Baffert, Roman, Blasi (Asmussen), Stewart all have a stable at Turfway. Should be a good meet.

Isnt that the truth. I like to listen to him call a race to get a good laugh.
